As part of the first match of the Champions League playoff round, Maccabi Haifa and Crvena Zvezda players will come face to face. Will the hosts be able to defeat the opponent in this match? LiveResult.Ru gives a forecast for this meeting.
Maccabi Haifa
Maccabi has not yet started this season of the national championship, so official games are held for the team only within the framework of European competitions. In the last round of the LCH qualification, the Israeli club managed to pass the Apollo. Maccabi outplayed Apollon 4-0 on its own field, after which it lost in Nicosia with an acceptable score of 0:2. At the same time, Maccabi did not look as monolithic as in the confrontation with the same Olympiacos, which they managed to beat 4-0 on the road in the second qualifying round.
"Crvena Zvezda"
The Serbian team has no equal in the national championship. In the five opening games, the team managed to score a maximum of 15 points. It is worth noting that in the last match of the national championship, Krasnaya Zvezda defeated Vozhdovac 4-0. At the same time, in 5 meetings of the national championship, the visiting team was able to send 21 goals to the opponents of Ude, conceding only one in its frame.
Statistics and figures:
- The hosts are small favorites of the meeting;
- Maccabi has won twice in the last 5 matches;
- Crvena Zvezda has a 7-match streak of one win in all tournaments;
- Previously, the rivals did not intersect in face-to-face confrontations.
Forecast
I believe that in this match the teams will show solid results in attack. Our bet in this match will be in favor of the "both will score – yes" event. The quotation for this event is very solid.
